Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to utilize these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, as well as to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will help to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be . Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
